1 Answer

I have a 2008 Opel corsa. Had the same problem. Clean the idle throttle valve on your inlet manifold. You need a special star type screwdriver. There are 2 screws holding it. Has a spring type mechanism that opens and closes when warm. Spray Chromoly cleaner in this (lots) and let it drip dry. Clean and spray dirt away...Put it back and hopefully problem solved...mine was..
